 I have a very deep question to ask y'all have you ever in your life seen a company more incompetent? It's like they're purposely trying to mess up and that every time they mess up it's like they try and one it up so patch four drops everybody believes this is the patch the big patch that one month into launch what what days the 13th is gonna fix all the problems with the game right oh my god all right so first of all there was problems for a whole month but now they're gonna be fixed so it's all good not only did the biggest problems get ignored one one some stuff that was previously working started to break two how do we get to this point as a community it just hurts because I look around at every other game and I'm like all right see there's problems with every game no game is gonna be perfect we know about that but the bs we have to deal with here on mba2k is reaching new heights every single year and the very sad part about that is that the game is super solid this year did y'all play the gameplay when it's not bugging with frame drops it feels smooth and so unlike previous years I don't think the gameplay is the issue it's all the stuff around the gameplay we're talking about micro transactions we're talking about the the frame drops the poor servers the fact that every single change as being made is just to everybody for all the money they got you would expect to all that spending the game would be perfect 2k would run into no issues whatsoever you imagine if you bought the legends edition like how would you be feeling right now it's like a new disaster pops up every other week it's amazing so when the game launch players are being deleted and then people start to go crazy because the servers were bugging right those frame drops all over the place and guys we have a third issue that's reaching monumental heights now if you try and play team program chances are you lag out of the game or the game doesn't even start up as a whole and then deep down you just really want to play a basketball game that you enjoy isn't that crazy i hold on i legitimately have a theory so there's a ton of frame drops unless you get a ps4 pro because of the better hardware if you're using regular ps4s or regular xbox ones then you're gonna experience frame drops because there's such outdated hardware it's tough to load everything in the 2k universe without it bugging out when you're playing games so in my mind i'm trying to think of reasons why 2k just doesn't create a shallow depth right so when you're in games just blur everything else out right so we don't lag no more when we're in the game if you blur everything else it should be no frame drops whatsoever but i was playing a game one time and it really dawned on me i saw the jordan logo on the billboard and i'm a sport management student so i'm trained to every time i see a billboard like right there in my mind the first thing i think about is i wonder how much they paid to get that billboard up there so when i saw the jordan logo on the playground i thought jordan's paying for this and if 2k blurred everything outside of the park if they've blurred all that unnecessary data in the distance to make your your gaming experience more enjoyable then they'll be losing out on the money and all the advertisements you know they advertised that pal jordan shoe last year right in 2k 17 and they just do all that through and how many people play the game over and over that's that's hundreds and thousands and millions of impressions almost every single day so anyway that's the theory i just thought of i don't know if it's true at all i just know that if something's on a billboard someone's paying for it i can't imagine 2k with all the micro transactions oh i'm too white i can't imagine with 2k with all the micro transactions isn't getting money for it so i'm gonna give credit where it's due because they did fix a decent amount of stuff with this patch they made catching passes in the corner more reliable after they took out the good corner stutter step animations from last year of course they resolved the prime accessory issue but they created new issues where if you try and go to your closet after you bought something sometimes it just doesn't show up that's interesting they redesigned the hood of guard who did y'all ask for that part controller settings now apply on the playground that's okay thank god you don't want to change it every single time they fix escape dribbles that cause players to face away that should have been done at launch though direct passes won't interrupt posting up so there's some solid fixes here and you can now join the prime arena together with your team like you don't have to all go five four three two one click and then if it doesn't work you have to back out and try it all you don't have to do that no more you can hop into the prime arena by yourselves and all get in together and then not play a game because you can't even load into the games anymore what a compromise all right i just wanna remind you guys in the sake of positivity the gameplay feels smooth i feel like i have to do that because i'm gonna lose my mind if i just sit here thinking about all the ways that this game royally messes up every single year you know what the sad thing is is i was actually excited for star wars battlefront 2 and then i saw all the deals with their microtransactions and they took a page right out of 2k's book because i'm not buying that game actually lowkey like yo don't tell nobody but i might still buy it yo but i definitely i'm not buying microtransactions if i get the game isn't that a shame i uh i'm too white let me get that there we go i envision a world where trash players in real life like myself can play in b8 2k and feel like they can really hoop i envision a world where there's no server issues there's no frame drops i can play with my friends there's obviously gonna be problems with gameplay it's never gonna be perfect but i have a really enjoyable time regardless all right let's talk about some of the problems that weren't fixed people can walk on to the court and start doing dances and messing around and i'm like yo why is there 10 people on the court that's not fixed catch and shoot leaning still exists can you explain why i catch and shoot as any build and for whatever reason my guy comes up on a leaning shot like he hadn't first time he touched a basketball in his life the squad invites are still broken we still can't skip cut scenes the my career cut scenes are the youtube equivalent to when somebody places those long unskippable ads on a video there is no way i'm sitting through it i'm just gonna refresh as many times as possible i will tolerate the short unskippable ads or the skippable ads do not place the long ones i am not watching a cutscene before your video the one minute glitch is packed so if you put your my career to one minute so you can make a little bit of vc so but nope nope 2k is trying to farm you for all the money you got he thought you was gonna scam them 2k is gonna get their money my guy and created shoes for whatever reason are not showing up in your closet now i don't care about that one but i saw it on twitter from ipod so i trust ipod now i just want to say regardless of all the issues especially because i'm not playing a lot of pro i'm now so that doesn't affect me i'm gonna get more into it especially once all the issues are resolved ever since i switched on to my ps4 pro i'm enjoying the game i don't enjoy the grind the grind is mind-numbing nobody wants to work that hard to get some badges just so they can max out their player and it's so refreshing i've been seeing some people from different communities that play mba2k talking about it mba2k18 is the biggest put most pathetic basketball game in the history of the industry it's a money grabbing makes me want to throw up all over my keyboard mess and just to get a refreshing point of view like we're not the crazy ones like i'm not wild for thinking that this is ridiculous so people come from other communities like yo this is out of control so inevitably patch five is on the way hopefully it fixes all the issues it's just so tiring we got to go through this all over again hi i'm gunley i gotta talk about this for hours if you enjoyed the video drop a like subscribe if you guys are new i'm about to get too white let me deal with that i'm gonna catch out later man i'm out i'm back in toronto later tonight so i'm gonna be back on the grind y'all funny people in the comments keep talking about aging just for the same sure i recorded like five videos in the same day bitch i stopped talking your smack anyway i'm out peace
